HPC Infrastructure for Simulation-Based Offshore Floater Design

Presenation made by J. O'Sullivan at the NAFEMS Americas Seminar "Simulation & Systems Engineering in the Oil & Gas Industry - Emerging Standards & Practices" that was held in Houston, TX USA on the 7th of April 2015.

Seminar Description

The oil & gas industry faces a myriad of challenges, including the operation of production equipment in the most extreme environments with no room for error, as well as increasing pressure on refineries to minimize costs, safety risks, downtime, and emissions. Accurately representing the reality of various production and refinement analyses requires a multidisciplinary approach and knowledge of current best practices & standards to safely and efficiently develop innovative solutions.

This event aims to deliver information and insights on critical topic areas in a manner that maximizes the value for attendees. An event agenda and concept championed by several leading figures in the oil & gas industry will provide the opportunity to learn about the latest technologies and practices, which attendees can later share and apply within their own organizations.
